I do hope the club isnt pushing Mcnulty back in to fitness too early, could do more damage in the long run? :nono:

Dickinson and Murray are unlikely to start together as they're basically the same sort of player, I think we'll see the same XI who started against Scunthorpe.

Kuipers

Whing
Elphick
Virgo
J. Wright

M. Wright
Navarro
Dicker
Crofts
Cox

Dickinson

Substitutes:

G. Smith, Tunnicliffe, Thornhill, J. Smith, Murray, El-Abd and McLeod

Thornhill is injured. Might make the bench ahead of McNulty but I doubt it.

You have to like our chances this season. Will take time to get to know each others names but our depth is impressive. We'd be gutted if Nicky F was injured last year.....now it hardly gets a mention.

Our reserve team was last years first team.

If we're playing with 1 up-front then I'd like to see this..

Kuipers

Whing---Elphick---Virgo---J. Wright

Dicker------Navarro

M. Wright----Thornhill-----Cox

Dickinson​

With Thornhill playing in-front of the two holding midfielders, and Wright & Cox pushing up in support of Dickinson.

But I expect Crofts to start, with Thornhill on the bench.

Kuipers (G Smith)
Whing (Cook)
Elphick (El Abd)
Virgo (Tunnicliffe)
J Wright (McNulty)
M Wright (Hart)
Thornhill (Crofts)
Dicker (Navarro)
Cox (J Smith/McLeod)
Murray (Forster)
Dickinson (Davies)

I would imagine that we will play 4-4-2 at home, although the most exciting football I have seen the Albion play was with 4-5-1 (that did have Zamora up front though). The team looks pretty good for me but what really impresses is the alternatives (which I put in brackets). We have got great strength in depth this year for once.
